President Ndayishimiye's Remarks Including That the Burundian Currency Equals the US Dollar Are Controversial
19 Mar 2024  |  radiyoyacuvoa.com
Burundian President Evariste Ndayishimiye has made several controversial statements, including claims that Burundians live in paradise, are wealthier than citizens of major countries like China and the USA, and that the Burundian currency is equivalent to the US dollar. He also suggested biblical locations and events, such as the Garden of Eden and Noah's Ark, originated in Burundi. His remarks have been met with skepticism and criticism from politicians, human rights activists, and citizens, particularly due to the high cost of living and scarcity of essentials like sugar and fuel. Despite these issues, Ndayishimiye has assured Burundians of economic self-reliance, dismissing the need for foreign aid. Critics argue his statements reflect a disconnect with reality and a lack of sound advice from his counselors.
